Natural history of the aging spine: a cross-sectional analysis of spinopelvic parameters in the asymptomatic population

There have been numerous studies demonstrating increased pain and disability when patients' spinopelvic parameters fall outside of certain accepted ranges. However, these values were established based on patients suffering from spinal deformities. It remains unknown how these parameters change over a lifetime in asymptomatic individuals. The goal of this study was to define a range of spinopelvic parameters from asymptomatic individuals.
